That's not the dynamic.

It's people that think electric motors are always the right solution to every problem and it's only a matter of rube Goldberging it up to shoehorn electric motors in to places that that's better without them.

It's against arrogant dogmatic rose colored glasses fanboyism being mistaken for software engineering

And this isn't straw-manning, the internet is full of these evangelists that exist as effectively marketing arms, as if they're bicycling around wearing nametags on behalf of the Church of Current Day Frameworks.

All it does is create messy piles of tangled garbage that wastes people's times and gets thrown away to be rewritten when the next flashy thing comes around. It's hot fashion for programming

It's gross and needs to stop. Seriously. Let's build the future, help fix the world's problems and quit fucking around.

This fetishism for shiny things have left us impotent executioners of meaningful change and thus we are amidst the tech stagnation
